- **Target investor price (1%):** £139,500

- **Monthly cashflow:** £-1,113/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)

Cashflow = rent − mortgage − 10% maintenance − £25/mo compliance; assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term. ROI = annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).*
